Der vorliegende Beitrag untersucht die Forschungsfrage, inwiefern das coronabedingte Homeoffice Führungshandeln in Kommunikationsagenturen verändert hat und inwiefern diese Veränderungen dem Führungskonzept Digital Leadership entsprechen.
Im coronabedingten Homeoffice hat die Diskussion über „Digital Leadership“ als neues Führungskonzept veränderter Arbeitswelten weiter an Relevanz gewonnen (Amerland, 2021; Bitkom, 2021; Kollmann, 2020). Dennoch zeigt sich im Bereich des Kommunikationsmanagements insbesondere hinsichtlich der Untersuchung von Agenturen eine Forschungslücke zu Digital Leadership während der Coronakrise.
Obwohl Agenturen im Berufsfeld eine große Bedeutung zugeschrieben wird, werden diese in der Forschung wenig betrachtet (Röttger und Zielmann, 2009). Daher untersucht der vorliegende Beitrag die Forschungsfrage, inwiefern das coronabedingte Homeoffice Führungshandeln in Kommunikationsagenturen verändert hat und inwiefern diese Veränderungen dem Führungskonzept Digital Leadership entsprechen. Zur Untersuchung der Forschungsfrage wurden qualitative, leitfadengestützte Experteninterviews (N = 5) mit Führungskräften aus mittelgroßen Agenturen durchgeführt und mithilfe der qualitativen Inhaltsanalyse (Mayring, 2016) ausgewertet. Die Ergebnisse zeigen entgegen der Hypothese, dass das Führungshandeln in den befragten Agenturen bereits vor der Coronakrise dem Führungskonzept „Digital Leadership“ im Sinne des VOPA+-Modells von Petry (2016) entsprach. Einzelne Merkmale des Führungskonzeptes wie Agilität und Vernetzung wurden in weiten Teilen in den befragten Agenturen durch das coronabedingte Homeoffice allerdings katalysiert. Neben einer Verlagerung der Führung in den virtuellen Raum wurden auch Veränderungen im Führungshandeln in Form neuer Maßnahmen wie mehr Fürsorge, Kommunikation und Boundary Management festgestellt. Diese Veränderungen im Führungskonzept Digital Leadership können als Implikationen für Führungskräfte in einem Modellansatz zu „Digital Leadership im Homeoffice“ festgehalten werden. Post-Covid müssen Digital Leader ihr Führungskonzept zudem an die sich weiter verändernden Anforderungen hybrider Arbeitswelten adaptieren. An dieser Stelle wird der Bedarf an weiterführender Forschung zu Führungshandeln in hybriden Arbeitswelten, insbesondere im Bereich des Kommunikationsmanagements, deutlich.
Das Ziel des Beitrags ist es, die Bedeutung von aktiven Kundinnen und Kunden für ein unterstützendes Marketing Management hin zu einer nachhaltigen Entwicklung am Beispiel der Energiewirtschaft aufzuzeigen. Das Menschenbild des homo sustinens kann von besonderer Relevanz sein, um aktive Kundinnen und Kunden im Marketing Management zu verstehen. Dem homo sustinens zugrundeliegend, der sich am Leitbild der Nachhaltigkeit orientiert, ergeben sich vielfältige Ansatzpunkte für den Austauschprozess mit aktiven Kundinnen und Kunden. Sie können befähigt, instrumentalisiert, unterstützt, erzogen oder optimiert werden.
Background
Citizen energy cooperatives (CECOs) are an important element for realising the transformation of the European energy system from a central system, dominated by a few market players to a decentralized system with the participation of many citizens, in which energy supply is largely based on renewable energy sources. This article identifies success factors that ensure a working organization that is capable of implementing projects to support the energy transition and improving the well-being of citizens.
Methods
The aim of this study is to identify success factors using the example of CECOs in north western Germany through a two-step process. The first step is a literature review to identify success factors of CECOs. Second, 12 semi-structured expert interviews with managers of CECOs are conducted and evaluated by means of a qualitative content analysis. The interviews identified the success factors and barriers of CECOs. The interviews were recorded and transcribed verbatim. The coding process was carried out using a qualitative data analysis software (ATLAS.ti 8.4.5,).
Results
The results show that three factors particular should be present, but can influence each other, to lead to successful CECOs: (1) the CECOs require business models with low complexity, as business models that span different stages of the value chain can overwhelm organizational managers. (2) Committed key individuals must be found and promoted. They need the support of the members. (3) Social and ecological principles are the core values of CECOs. The maintenance and strengthening of social–ecological credibility must be promoted in the public perception.
Conclusions
The results show that CECOs emerge from a strong social cohesion in a society. In addition, local "key individuals" need to be identified and supported. To this end, the framework conditions (e.g., policy, legislation, municipal support, etc.) must be adapted in such a way that these "key individuals" in CECOs are not overburdened. The analysis of the interviews also revealed that political or regulatory barriers are often cited as obstacles to the implementation of community energy projects.
background: Musculoskeletal problems (MP) are widespread in performing artists and are due to the special demands of instrument playing, singing or dancing. Additionally, various other factors might contribute to performance-related MP. To provide a specific physiotherapeutic management for performing artists it is important to gain information about the performing art, the individual demands and contributing factors. The subjective examination (SE) is the basis of the clinical reasoning process and the hypothesis forming for further clinical examination and biomechanical analysis. In the present protocol, the SE consists of a questionnaire-based section and an interview-based section and is part of the evaluation process of the neuromusculoskeletal examination of a performing artist specific reference laboratory.
purpose: To develop a standardized SE protocol divided into a questionnaire-based section (Part 1) via web application and an interview-based SE (Part 2) to address MP of performing artists.
methods: The questionnaires for part 1 were selected based on the expertise of the research group and the psychometric properties of each possible questionnaire. A common physiotherapeutic recording of findings which addresses the relevant questions of the SE of MP was used. To adapt the anamnesis to performing-associated MP questions specific to instrument playing, singing and dancing were selected on the basis of a literature search and the expertise of the research group.
summary of content/results: Part 1 consists of three topics. (1) information about the performing art, professional level and sociodemographic data, (2) information about pain and pain processing, and (3) the anatomical location of the main MP including a body region-specific questionnaire. Part 2 is based on the five aspects of clinical practice described by Maitland and the Musculoskeletal Clinical Translation Framework by Mitchell et al. The performing arts specific part is particularly focused on performing art specific considerations, physical and psychosocial contributing factors and art-specific activities.
significance: This standardized SE protocol should help clinicians evaluating the musculoskeletal health of performing artists in a standardized and specific way.
Background: Musculoskeletal problems (MP) are widespread in performing artists and are due to the special demands of instrument playing, singing or dancing. In order to specifically evaluate these problems, a reference laboratory is under development. The evaluation covers 4 steps: a subjective examination (SE) including (1) a questionnaire-based online survey and (2) an interview-based anamnesis. On the basis of the results of the SE, hypotheses are formed for (3) an individual musculoskeletal clinical examination and a (4) biomechanical analysis. Here, the focus is on the clinical examination.
Purpose: to develop a standardized protocol for a clinical examination addressing especially musculoskeletal problems in performing artists.
Methods: A common physiotherapeutic clinical examination should be supplemented with techniques, which are specific to performance-related musculoskeletal problems and/or their risk factors. The development was based on a literature search and the clinical expertise of the physiotherapeutic research group.
Summary of content/Results: The performing arts specific clinical examination includes the common analysis of posture as well as passive/active movement capacities and specific differentiating tests in relation to the signs and symptoms of the individual artist. The examination is supplemented by a functional demonstration focusing on the special demands of playing the respective instrument, while singing or dancing. Common overuse risk factors like hypermobility, special anthropometric data or an examination of the motor control of different body regions are addressed. Optional, the various parts of the examination process could be skipped, if not relevant for the individual artist.
Significance: This clinical examination protocol should help clinicians evaluating the musculoskeletal health of performing artists in a standardized and specific way.
Hypothesis/Aims of study
Many results related to the effectiveness of surgical and non-surgical proce- dures for treating urinary incontinence (UI) are reported in the literature. Following the principles of evidence based-practice, besides the interpreta- tion of study results based on statistical significance, authors should consid- er evaluating the clinical relevance of treatment effects in this field.
The minimal important difference (MID) of clinical outcomes could be used to assess the clinical relevance of interventions. MID is defined as “the small- est difference in score in the domain of interest that patients perceive as important, either beneficial or harmful, and which would lead the clinician to consider a change in the patient’s management’’[1]. One common way to obtain MID for outcomes of interest is by using anchor-based methods. These methods apply one anchor that analyzes the change in the patient's health status according to the patient’s perception.
However, MIDs should be provided according to appropriate calculations and methods and based on the definition of a MID. However, there are a lot of misconceptions and misunderstandings related to the MID. These mis- understandings have led to incorrect reports of these values. Moreover, it is still not known which criteria the authors considered during the analysis of the MID in the Women’s Health area. Therefore, with this preliminary re- port, we aimed to identify and report all anchor-based methods to estimate MIDs for outcomes measures related to UI available in the literature; and analyze which concepts and levels of improvement in the health status of the patient have been considered by the authors to calculate the MID.
Study design, materials and methods
This systematic review was conducted according to PRISMA guide- lines. The study protocol was registered in the PROSPERO database (CRD42022299686). A systematic search was performed using Ovid Med- line, Embase, Web of Science, and Scopus from May to June 2021. Any study generating MIDs for UI that included women with more than 18 years, stress urinary incontinence (SUI), urgency urinary incontinence (UUI) and/ or miXed urinary incontinence (MUI) was included. The primary outcome was the MID for outcomes related to UI. No limits were applied on the data- bases for the date, language or publication range.
Studies were classified into three categories according to the level of im- provement in health status assessed by the anchor and considered by the authors during the MID calculation: 1) slight improvement: if authors in- cluded participants that evaluated their health status as “a little better” in their analysis; 2) moderate improvement: if authors considered women that reported a “better” or a “much better” status of the condition; or 3) strong imporvement: if all patients that improved (“very much better” or if authors grouped all the patients that improved in one single category) were consid- ered in one group against other group that did not report any improvement. After classifying the papers, we counted and reported how many studies were considering only the minimal level of improvement to reported the MID, according to previous definition and recommendation.
The initial electronic search resulted in a total of 1,662. After removing du- plicates (n=719), 943 were screened, and at the end of the selection stages, nine papers that reported anchor-analysis were included in this preliminary report. Seven studies included women with SUI (total sample size= 2,436), while one study included only women with UUI (n=307), and the other one evaluated women with SUI and MUI (n=288). SiX studies analyzed data and provided the MID after a non-surgical treatment of UI, while three analyzed the results after surgery to correct UI. Eleven different questionnaires to measure the patient-related outcomes related to UI with their MIDs were identified. All the tools were related to measuring the impact, distress, or quality of life of women with UI.
Different anchors were used to analyze MID, including scales that evaluated the improvement and satisfaction of the patient, and the visual analogue scale, measures of urinary leakage and questionnaires that measure the se- verity and impact of UI. The MID of siX tools was determined according to the smallest difference detected by the patients, using the Patient Global Im- pression of Improvement questionnaire and the self-reported satisfaction to assess the change of the condition. Most of the MIDs (n=28, 80%) were mis- calculated considering a moderate or a strong improvement of the patients, and not a minimal improvement as suggested by the literature (Table 1).
Interpretation of results
Although previous systematic reviews have reported the psychometric prop- erties of different questionnaires to measure UI outcomes, this is the first study to analyze methods of obtaining MIDs for UI outcomes from the pa- tients perspective (anchor based methods). All the tools with their respec- tives MIDs were related to the impact, distress, and/or quality of life of women with UI. The use of these outcomes measures is in line with the as- sociated impairments of social, psychological, financial, and sexual aspects of a women’s life produced by UI.
Most of the authors in this field did not consider the smallest difference identified by the participants to calculate the MID, which does not follow the original definition of MID proposed by Jaeschke et al.,1 This could gen- erate underestimation or over-estimation of MID, which may directly im- pact the interpretation of the findings from the clinical trials[2] and biased interpretation of the results of the clinical significance from the interven- tions used to manage female UI. Therefore, the interpretation of the clinical significance related to UI outcomes should be done with caution.
Concluding message
Few studies that aimed to calculate the MID using anchor-based methods for outcomes related to female UI were found in the literature. Eleven different questionnaires to measure the outcomes related to UI with their MIDs were identified. However, most studies had not considered the smallest change of improvement (as perceived by the patients) in their analysis, which does not follow the definition of the MID. This could impact decision making. Future research should provide clear guidelines on how to calculate, report, and interpret MIDs in this field.
